to a conference congregation in this fash

man who is to come after you. A minister
who didn't bear this in mind was asked
by his Pensioners what kind Of q man

REMARKABLE HONESTY.


Debt Of Honor Repaid with Intsrost
After Twenty Five Years
The payment to q citizen of New Haven
Of more than k<lf y million Of dollars uu-
der remarkable circumstances Is reported
In the New Haven xsgit.r, which vouchss
for the truth Of the story. That journal
says that at the beginning Of the civil
war wealty Southern grocer, who had
recently taken his young b~ook-keeper into
partnership, fearing that his property
would be confis Gated, decided to 60 North.
he told the book keeper to
use the property, valued at about
100000, as he thought best, and
that be would reply upon the book
keepers honor for q settlement at some
future time. Tho merchant then went
North and settled in New Haven. He en-
gagged In business and prospered. There
seemed but little probability Of
the property he had left behind
him in the South surviving the convulsion
Of the war, and he made no inquiry about
It for some years after peace was pro-
claimed. Ultimately, however, q friend,
well. known lawyer in New Haven, was
going South, and tho merchant requested
him to investigate, and collect If there
was any thing to collect.
A correspondence with the ~book-keeper
at the South vas thus opened up, and the
latter forwarded an acknowledgment of
the claim, and IN inventory showing his
Indebtedness to his former employer to
be s64S,0 on, and expressed his desire to re-
turn the property, but requested time to
perfect his arrangements. He began re.
hitting several years ago, and recently
forwarded the last payment, including
interest, thus wiping out a debt of honor.

gia or sciaiica and relief comes, IL seems as
il a new lease Of life had been granted.
Such have been the feelings Of thousands
who, after trying physicians and number

have suffered from rheumatism for about
thirteen years. At different intervals
have been unable TO attend to my business
for weeks at a time. The most Of my
trouble was in my hands and arms. The
pain was usually accompanied with con-
siderable swelling of my hands. During
these years | have used many kinds Of
remedies with only temporary relief. Being
in the newspaper business had come in
contact with various medicines that were
advertised in our columns, but really never
had much faith in patent medicines. A
little over three years ago my attention was
called to Athlophoros. ! noticed from
time to time the strong endorsement Of
parties tina; had used the remedy and was
sent to US for publication in our paper.
Through this means concluded to try the
medicine for nv own case. Twas relieved
and cured in a remarkably short time" :"
Have Won been troubled with rheuma-
tism since" was asked. 81 was entirely
rid of it for two years and then had another
slight attack, bu, few doses Of Athlopho-
ros soon drove it away !; since that time,
abou; year ago, have been entirely free
from rheumatism. This was all done with
